3.8 Stroker motor

[Sandman]

Yea, I was wonder if i could turn the 3.8 seriesII into a stroker motor by using the 4.1 crankshaft and pistons?

[Arctc Wolf]

it could work, as long as the rods were shortened enough and the piston compression height were also reduced in height. 3.4" stock stroke, 5.7" rod, and I dunno the compression height, but just make sure it all work out, as well as the crank actually fitting in our blocks.

[3.4 slow to go]

Back in the early 80's there was a 4.1 option. IT wasn't as great as they thought it would be & was dropped.
